Hi there! We’ve just moved to Elsternwick from the other side of town, and our kids are in Prep and Grade 2, and have settled in beautifully at their new school.
We’re looking for a friendly, reliable babysitter to help us out one afternoon a week (likely Wednesdays if that works) — picking the kids up from school at 3:30 pm and hanging out with them until about 6:30 pm (timing negotiable).
We live about a 5–10 minute drive from the school. The job involves collecting the kids, playing, preparing simple snacks or dinner, and a bit of light tidying of kid-related chaos.
Some weeks, we might ask if you’re free for an extra afternoon or an occasional date night, but that’s totally optional.
We’ve been lucky to have wonderful babysitters in the past who’ve become part of our family over the years - we’d love to find another lovely local fit! We’re a warm, inclusive household (and have a very friendly cat!), so we’d love to find someone who’s LGBTQI+ friendly and comfortable with pets.
If this sounds like you, please get in touch - we’d love to chat.

Both parents work from home. We also have a Groodle, so being comfortable around dogs is important.

• Have experience caring for preschool-aged children
• Enjoy play-based learning and creative, hands-on activities
• Be kind, patient and confident managing two young children
• Hold a Working With Children Check and police check
